737 Max aftermath: Crisis spreads to long-haul aircraft
In the wake of the 737 Max crisis, the crisis is now spreading to long-haul aircraft.
Less than six months after a crash in Ethiopia claimed the lives of 157 people, another tragedy occurred on March 10, 2019, when a Boeing 737 MAX 8 operated by Ethiopian Airlines crashed shortly after takeoff.
Following the crash, Ethiopian Airlines grounded all of its 737 MAX 8 aircraft, and Boeing is now facing the prospect of a global grounding of the aircraft.
The 737 MAX crisis has already had a significant impact on Boeing's reputation and financial performance. The company has lost billions of dollars in orders and has been forced to suspend production of the 737 MAX.
The crisis is also likely to have a negative impact on the airline industry. Airlines that operate the 737 MAX will be forced to find replacement aircraft, which will likely lead to higher costs and disruptions to schedules.
The 737 MAX crisis is a major setback for Boeing and the airline industry. It remains to be seen how the company will recover from this crisis, but it is clear that the crisis will have a lasting impact on the aviation industry.
